"This was the second time I had eaten at the Copper Door, and both times were nothing less than outstanding. I was very impressed with the food and service once again. I had the pot roast and my boyfriend had the crawfish tortellini, and they were superb. I would recommend this to anyone and everyone as a fine dining restaurant."

"I always bring visiting clients and friends to the Copper Door. Always has been great. I went this past Monday and service was very slow. I am in food service so maybe they were short handed. We arrived at the time of our reservation and was asked to wait at bar. Took another 5 minutes for us to get a glass of wine. Dinner for 3 took 2 hours. Entrees were the longest to come out of the kitchen. Food was great!"

"Elegant and comfy décor. Wait staff is very helpful. The blackened cod and duck breast were outstanding. The "bronzed" cod was on the bland side but would order again, only blackened. The mushroom bisque is always great. Enjoyed our dessert except for the guilt."

"We have eaten at the Copper Door quite a number of times and intend to make the "pairings" just a treat for my husband and myself. Yet we have friends that sometimes we just go out with for friends night and that is definitely my favorite restaurant. I love the food, although I cook a lot of different cuisines at home, sometimes it's nice to go out and enjoy someone else doing the cooking!
Looking forward to the May pairing and having an enjoyable evening. The service was excellent, the food; divine, and I can tell you that as being a local, born no more than a mile from there, this is such a treasure. Thank you, Copper Door!

"Everything was great, except when we asked to take the remaining excellent food home to imbibe the next day, we asked if we could put the food in the container. The waitress seemed concerned that we would ask and said that she would take care of it. We said to make sure that she included the gravy on our pot roast and she said that she would also add extra gravy. When we got home there was NO gravy, not even the gravy that we initially had. This made our subsequent meal VERY dry."

"The soup - wild mushroom bisque - was so yummy! The fish of the day was very well seasoned.
Great place for a date or special occasion. Seating is in close proximity to others, so it isn't private, but the ambiance is very pleasing (we sat in the main room, just next to a rock wall with fire place).
Staff were pleasant and attention paid to diners.
Thanks!

"We found The Copper Door online while searching for places to eat while on our honeymoon. The number of positive reviews was impressive, and we gave it a shot. The Copper Door destroyed our expectations. The staff was extremely helpful and courteous. The food was AMAZING, and dessert was even better. Looking at the surrounding area, The Copper Door is a rare find.
If you're looking for an exceptional meal in a romantic setting with an exceptional staff, this is your place. We're looking forward to coming back here on anniversaries to come :)"

"We came in for dessert and ordered Creme Brulee and Bananas Foster. The Creme Brulee was great but the waitress who made the Bananas Foster had no clue what she was doing and absolutely drowned the bananas in way too much liquor and still couldn't get it to ignite so another waiter came and re-doused it in even MORE liquor. There was so much alcohol in this that you couldn't taste anything but liquor and it melted the ice cream on contact so I was served an over alchoholed melted mess that was inedible partially because I am pregnant, and partially because it was the worst bananas foster I've ever had."

"This is our favorite restaurant in the area. The ambiance is excellent and perfect for a romantic dinner. The other night I was with a group of seven women for a book club dinner and they were equally accommodating. The service is friendly and professional. The food is excellent and nicely presented. It is definitely a gem in the mountains of Western North Carolina."

"Having traveled and dined extensively in many places I must say that The Copper Door is now one of my favorites. The ambiance was embracing; the food delicious, the staff very courteous, charming as well as attentive. Definitely a repeat at some point in the future. A must visit for everyone with discerning taste as well as fun visit for all ages!"

"We live in Hayesville and have to go outside of the immediate area for many things, but not for a fine dining experience...we have it right here with The Copper Door. Consistently delicious meals and excellent service. Be sure to try the red pepper soup, an occasional special, if it is available"

"My wife and I wanted to celebrate our anniverary at a local restaurant for a change.
Wow! The Copper Door was amazing! We thought we've dined at all the best places there was over the years.
The food and service were outstanding as was the nice classical low level background music. It was definitely the intimate place we were looking for and the staff made sure the flowers I ordered were placed on the best table in the house.
Not every day all the best qualities needed in a fine dining restaurant align at once.
The Open Table website really made it easy to reserve a table and order flowers etc.
Needless to say, we'll be inventing more special occasions just to go back!

Candace was our waitress and could not have been better. very diligent and attentive.She was excellent!
Thank you for a great evening!

"Very good restaurant. The food was good. It is a small place but given its location in the city and the city itself, it is appropriate. I took my girlfriend there for her birthday, and we didn't get looked well upon. Being 19, with my just then turning 19 girlfriend, our thoughts were they were expecting us not to pay. Our waiter was nice and courteous whenever he was around us, but seemed to be judging or talking about us to other associates when left our presence. Just a personal comment for any younger opentable members out there. But don't let that take away from the calm and eloquent manner the Copper Door presents to you as soon as you walk in. I would definitely respond this place to anyone else who is going to be around that area."
